In Instagram, open Settings, find Account type and tools, and switch to a professional account. Choose Creator or Business. It's free, and your followers stay the same.
In Instagram's message settings, make sure connected tools are allowed to access your messages. Without this, replies may not work.
Sign up free on Hypee and connect through Instagram's own login. Hypee never sees your password.
Choose "Comment on a post", pick your Reel and type a keyword such as LINK. Leave the keyword empty to reply to every comment.
Add a short public reply and your DM. Use {first_name} to add the person's name. The free message generator can write these for you.
Turn it on and ask a friend to comment the keyword from their account. If nothing arrives, see the troubleshooting guide.
About five minutes if you already have a professional account.
No. Hypee uses Instagram's own login.
Use a different account. A comment from your own account doesn't show you what a follower sees.
